    thank you for the commentes everyone. Foxy has been pretty much sleeping ever since he came home. He sees to be ok. The only problem is though: he doesn't want to go to the toilet. i've taken him outside about 5 time today and he doesn't want to go. He's been drinking a lot of water (more than usual) and he hasn't been to the toilet at all since he's come home. Does anyone know why?

    Get well soon, Foxy! I don't know about the peeing thing. What is a grass seed injury? I have never heard of that.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    a grass seed injury is when the grass seed goes inside the skin and it keeps on going in deeper until it's taken out. grass seeds are designed to work one way: they only go down and can't come out by them selfs and thats why an operation is needed to get the grass seed out.

    get well soon Foxy

    our instructor did warn us about grass seeds. it is important to check if there is a grass seed anywhere in the body after you take your dog out as it can be dangerous once it gets into the system like Foxy.

    Here's a article about grass seeds, which I didn't know could be deadly if they migrate to the lungs or other organs
